This is the story of a woman who discovers a landscape, a quiet haven for her inspiration. It was in 1983 that Pati arrived in St Barth.?At the time, she found a quaint village by the sea, with magical endless beaches, where everybody knew each other’s first name, and you could drive up the iconic airport runway on your scooter, your hair blowing in the breeze. People used to drink a “Planter” at “Le Select”, one of the only bars on the island, or go dancing at the legendary Autour du Rocher?and often end the evening counting the stars late at night on the Beach of Saline.

People used to drink a “Planter” at “Le Select”, one of the only bars on the island, or go dancing at the legendary Autour du Rocher?and often end the evening counting the stars late at night on the Beach of Saline.

Curious and passionate, Pati arrived on the island with just a notebook and some watercolors in her pocket. In order for her to buy her paint supplies, she began designing logos emblematic of her new found island, and imprinted them on colorful sun-washed t-shirts that would sell out in the few boutiques on island. That is when the logo ST BARTH FRENCH WEST INDIES was born.?Of this huge success, a first atelier store opened in Gustavia, then three, all on the island of St Barth.
